This week, David Bloomberg & Jesssica Lewis talk about the reasons why Simone Nguyen lost in Survivor Heroes v Healers v Hustlers.
When the Hustlers went to Tribal Council, it seemed to come down to a decision between two people. How did Simone end up as one of the two who weren’t as integrated into the tribe? What could she have done differently both before and during the game? David and Jessica discuss all of this and more as they determine Why Simone Lost.
To review the short version of David's Rules, here is the quick version:
Rule 1: Scheme and Plot
Rule 2: But Don’t Scheme and Plot Too Much/Keep Your Scheming Secret/Don’t Backstab Until You Absolutely Need To
Rule 3: Be Flexible!
Rule 4: Don’t Let Your Emotions Control You
Rule 5: Pretend To Be Nice/Play the Social Game (and Keep Your Politics and Controversial Beliefs To Yourself)
Rule 6: Don’t Be Too Much of a Threat
Rule 7: Know How to Deal with Idols and Advantages
Appendix A: Make Your Votes Count – Keep in Mind Your End Goal
Appendix B: The Jury Phase
